...Title

Modify City Sunshine Resolution and Procedures for Agenda Items Submitted After Rules Committee.

...Recommendations

As recommended by the Rules and Open Government Committee on April 15, 2020:

Adopt a resolution repealing and replacing Resolution No. 79450 (modifying public meetings, noticing, and document posting in the City’s Sunshine Procedures), to:

(a) Allow only the City Manager-not Mayor and Council Offices-to request the City Clerk place an item on the City Council Agenda after the date of the hearing of the Rules Committee, but at least 72 hours prior to the meeting, in compliance with the Council Rules of Conduct Resolution No. 79367 Rule 3(d), which requires 2/3 vote of Council to add items after Rules; and

(b) Allow Councilmembers and the Mayor to have the City Clerk place an item on the City Council Agenda under Orders of the Day after the date of the hearing of the Rules Committee, but at least 72 hours prior to the meeting, if the Clerk utilizes the procedures authorized in Consolidated Open Government and Ethics Resolution (“Sunshine Resolution”) No. 77135, Section 2.3.2.1.E to allow items to be so added if the Mayor, City Manager, and City Attorney concur that the item requires immediate action, and Council authorizes its addition by a 2/3 vote.

CEQA: Not a Project, File No. PP17-008, General Procedure and Policy Making resulting in no changes to the physical environment. (Mayor)
